## Questions & Answers

**Q: If you hang at an angle will it redirect the water or still just fall directly down?**
A: If it is barely raining or if it is raining hard water will not follow the length of the chain if the chain is hung at an angle. There is a sweet spot where the flow is just right and the water will follow the chain. More or less than that the water will leave the chain and head to the ground well before the end of the chain.

**Q: How many "cups" are in one order?  I want my rain chain to have 21 cups (anniversary).  If there are more than that, can the be removed easily?**
A: The cup count is 23. Yes, cups can be removed, but it will require cutting of the joining links.

**Q: Does it come in black?**
A: Yes.

**Q: Can you tell me the size (length, width) of the individual links. The links include little square buckets, right?**
A: Each "bucket" (or cup) portion is 2"H x 1.25"W.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ They were easy to hang from gutter after I removed the downspout ...
*by R***H on July 8, 2015*

These chains were not too difficult to assemble, although they do ship completely in individual parts. Only took me 5 minutes and three beers. Also, a short trip to the ER. But that was her fault, not mine, and I'm sticking to my story. They were easy to hang from gutter after I removed the downspout and threw it in my neighbors yard, although I do recommend the additional accessory to mount inside the actual gutter. Also, I did use some silicone caulk in the gutter to seal in the mount because before I did that, the water just poured out everywhere. Afterwards, it did peacefully cascade down the chain all the way to the ground. In heavy rain, all hell breaks loose, but to be quite honest, who the hell is in their yard during a heavy rain storm anyway, watching the dangling chains of oppression contain the nourishing water of life from splashing wherever the universe has intended. In all, I did find this to be a very nice purchase. Don't expect it to bring you to Nirvana, but it's better than some crappy downspouts.
